Week 2 — Titans vs. 🦬 Bills - Predict the score.
corta765 replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall
Bills 27 Titans 20 Bills come out of the gate hot with back to back touchdown drives courtesy of Knox and Singletary running one in from 15 yds out. Titans get two fgs in the second quarter as their drives stall, but the Bills get a late FG from bass from 50 yds to go into half up 17-6. Titans score on a long TD drive in the 3rd quarter with Henry to hang around because they do that 17-13. Allen though takes the Bills right back down the field capping the drive with a TD bootleg to put Buffalo back ahead by two scores at 24-13. A Titans turnover mid fourth quarter sees another Bass FG and the Bills up 27-13. The Titans score in garbage time with 20 seconds to go but Buffalo gets the onside kick and its light out. Allen 22-29 301 yds 1 TD 43 yds // rush 6 att 1 TD Knox 75 yds 5 rec 1 TD Singletary 95 yds 12 at 1 TD Milano 7 tackles 1 INT STRESS lol -
The plan is for the kids to have the team and run it as others have said multi generational. Granted money can ruin people, but they seem to have so much and as a family seem pretty unified that I am not overly worried long term.

corta765 replied to bigfootindy's topic in The Stadium Wall
Nope it is the national 4pm game and one of CBS jewel games this year. There is no way in sweet jesus they allow it moved after not getting it at 1 or 4 the last two years. I've come to realize the generation of us who are drought fans (born in 80s) got 100% spoiled in a terms of convenience with 1pm games lol. -

They are in that Patriots status where they are basically in the AFC title yearly now and betting against them as a SB fav seems like a favorite. If the Bills want to be their counter with they gotta win the SB. Beating them in the playoffs would be good, but if you want to be considered a team like that you gotta finish the job.

Its called a thesis! lol

NFL: Week 1 is classic overreaction 101 as fanbases like the 49ers, Bengals, and Rams are imploding while Giant fans and Texan fans feel better about where they are at now then 48 hrs ago. Realistically the first 4 weeks of an NFL season is fools gold and at max entertaining value. Last year the Chiefs started 2-2 and still ended up wining the division despite the Chargers beating them early on. The Pats were notorious slow starters with Brady where on the flip side the 2016 Rams starter 3-1 only to win one game the rest of the year. With all of that said there are some things that could be more true heading into the season like the Lions being an improved roster as they pushed the Eagles hard or the Titans finally showing some cracks after jettisoning a lot of talent. With that said on to the AFC: AFC: If there is a prop bet that allows you to bet on Allen, Hebert, and Mahomes vs the field to rep the AFC I’d bet it hard for the next decade. These three teams are complete as they come across the board with freaks at QB who do incredibly fun and great things. Hebert still needs to prove he can perform in the playoffs (wasn’t his fault though they missed last year) but he is superb. If there was one takeaway watching the rest of the AFC it’s that there is those three teams/QBs and then the next tier #ReturnoftheAFL BAL: One game in and all well for Ravens offense. Can’t believe they haven’t signed Lamar as that’s a big distraction if things go south, but they’ve done this before. BUF: No blitzing and 7 sacks, the dream for McD and crew. The rematch with KC in the playoffs is coming this could be the big swing factor. CLE: They played ok and kinda lucked out at the same time. At some point the QB situation will drag the roster away from being playoff able. CIN: Joe Burrows last four games 5 TDs 6 INTs 299 ypg 24 sacks on 40 att. I think Joe Burrow is a superb QB with a great future assuming CIN doesn't destroy him. I also think yesterday was a bit of a wake up call he has room to grow and polish and last years SB was a lot of luck/early arrival for the Bengals. This loss will haunt them come end of year. DEN: Play tonight and everyone is curious how Russ "Rides" in Denver. If he plays like he did the last few years DEN can work there way into that top 3 of BUF/KC/LAC. HOU: They will be a bad team this year, but they are honest about themselves which should help in evaluating the talent they have and Lovie will have them compete where Sunday isn't a one time thing. IND: Yikes. They have lost week 1 for a bunch of years now so I guess a tie is a slight improvement, but for a team that is was a popular preseason pick they can't have too many games like this. JAX: Amazing what happens with competent coaching. Trevor had a decent game and the pieces are there for JAX to grow this year, but they need to protect him more for his true potential to come through (2 sacks 10 QB hits). KC: If you really thought KC/Mahomes would struggle I get it but bad pick. They may be more dangerous on offense as they are more diversified weapon wise even without Tyreek. LAC: One down ten to go. The talent and QB are there they need to just keep finishing the job unlike the prior years. MIA: Tua was fine, you beat a team you should, and BB is sad. Even if you don't like MIA the last part is nice. Waddle and Hill had their moments, but it just feels like it will be moments when you watch Tua. Fun stat per NFL.com Tua is 4-0 vs NE and BB....weird NE: BB sounded like Dick Jauron post game yesterday about two big plays swinging the game. Pretty jarring from a guy who demands perfection. Realty is finally hitting NE that they don't have the talent to complete even with the brain at coach. NYJ: They may be rivals but it is getting to the point of hug your local Jet fan. They only lost by 14 just sounds awful. Even after an offseason that seems promising they still were cannon fodder yesterday. They need to really hope when Wilson returns the offense shows some true growth and promise. PIT: Good for Mitch, bad for TJ. I really could see the Steelers challenging for a wild card spot... if TJ was healthy. Mitch was solid and the defense was relentless which is a fine formula, but Watt being potentially out for the year is the one difference maker they can't afford. RAIDERS: Anddd that is why people won't put Carr in the elite of QBs. In a division as tight as the AFC West in a game that is against a division opponent 3 INTs will kill any team. The next four games are ARZ, at TEN, DEN, at KC. They need to go 2-2 to keep pace if they have any playoff hope. TEN: On 21 attempts Derrick Henry average 3.9 ypc a year after his ypc went down to 4.3 from 5.4. At some point the tread on the tires starts to wear, the bigger issue is the loss of talent across the board that puts even more pressure on Henry to make plays. Yesterday was the kind of loss the catches a team when things get tight later in the year as Bills fans know too well. NFC: Week 1 saw struggles out of more consistent performers like Rodgers and Stafford while less believed in QB's like Jalen Hurts ad Kirk Cousins had a superb day. Odds are Rodgers and Stafford rebound with their teams as part of the NFC elite, but if Hurts and Cousins can actually keep their play at the level it is at the NFC could be far more wide open then maybe thought at the start. With that said looking at the young stars at QB in the AFC vs the NFC you can see a stark contrast in talent. Justin Fields had a nice day considering the weather while Trey Lance struggled, but after those two you are left with Kyler Murray & Jalen Hurts if you buy his stock. Odds are the NFC will field 2-3 of the top teams in the draft which should bring some more young talent over, but it is damning how the NFC is still led by aged vets like Brady, Rodgers, Stafford, and Cousins to a lesser extent. Things change fast in the NFL and I am sure in 2 years it could be very different, but even if the NFC gets some new blood in the draft it will take a little time to build around those guys. ARZ: There have been many questions on the true strength of the Cards defense and they were exposed badly yesterday. Blitzing against Mahomes is a major no no and they did that far too much. ATL: Play an entertaining game? Check. Have a sizable lead fourth quarter? Check. Blow said lead because your coach didn't have the guts to go for it on 4th and 1? Check. Lose game which helps long term draft goal? Check CAR: Baker had an atrocious start, but they got back in it and the offense showed a lot of life late. Gut wrenching way to lose on a FG 63 yds plus, but the schedule is light enough if the offense can actually stay healthy and competent to push at the playoffs. CHI: Good for Justin Fields to get a nice win like that. I still think they are a year away as he needs a little more help, but that is certainly a confidence builder. The field on the other hand is why they are moving to Arlington. DAL: It is like clock work, post playoff year key injuries hit and wreck the season. Even if Dak was healthy though they lack depth and it showed it big time before he went out against TB. DET: I got to hand it to the Lions for not quitting when they went down 21-7 or 31-14, PHI was a tough matchup out of the gate but if they are to turn the proverbial corner you need to make true progress. Goff started slow but the offense has enough talent to make some noise late for a wildcard it is the defense that still needs a lot of help. GB: Second year with a horrendous start for GB, but the questions are real about Adams being gone as rookie WR Christian Waston dropped an easy TD deep. I would expect GB to get off the mat, but I do not think they have nearly the easy road clinching a playoff birth as they have years prior. LAR: Not the start many expected but the offensive line is in transition which limited Stafford's time to pass and get comfortable. They need to get that figured out if they want to make a run again. Thankfully the rest of the division loss so no harm. MIN: Head coach Kevin O'Connell said he was going to put players in their best position to succeed and I'd say that went well opening week. The defense is not perfect by any means, but if they can support the high flying offense enough Minnesota can win the division and 11-12 games. NYG: Good for Brian Daboll getting his first win and good for him going for 2pts. There are still far too many coaches that play the conservative risk adverse coaching style, I appreciate him going for 2. With Dak out maybe the Giants get a little lucky to make things interesting down the road especially if Barkley can stay healthy. NOLA: Well they were down 26-10 heading into the fourth against a team expected to draft near the top... they also won 27-26. If they want to be a playoff team they have to be more consistent then what they showed. PHI: Have a day Jalen Hurts who moved like an mongoose attack a Cobra. His passing at times is still a little questionable, but he is using his weapons and head coach Nick Sirreonis aggressive rushing attack really is fun to watch. SEA: They play tonight and I for one am curious how Geno does. They strike me as a top 5 draft team, but Geno has two good WR's and a new LT. The big question is if the 12's boo Wilson? SF: Holy over reaction. Lance had a tough day, but very very few QBs are having a great day in that monsoon. That locker room needs to keep blinders on the entire season otherwise the outside noise will wreck a potentially good team. TB: The offense wasn't very crisp and Godwin may be out again, but Leonard Fournette looked reborn. More importantly the Bucs defense was sensational all game which will take pressure off the offense which is trying to figure out some changes up front on the line and no Gronk at TE. WSH: Wentz might have had the least encouraging 4 TD 300 yd game ever as he had back to back INTs and almost another late. The talent is there where they could be a playoff team especially with Dallas looking down, but they just always seem to have questions even when things are good.

The Ripoff Report: Game Thoughts
corta765 replied to WhitewalkerInPhilly's topic in The Stadium Wall
I tend to avoid making major assumptions off the first four weeks especially but what a team is until at least mid season. The Rams are a bit of a work in progress on offense and defense right now as they had a bunch of major changes player wise. Buffalo also is just really really loaded this year and motivated so this stuff happens. I do think there may be some signs on the dashboard that the Rams defense may be weaker as their talent is not what it has been. But overall they probably will be fine and the NFC in general is just weak. -
James Cook is going to be a major problem
corta765 replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
After last night his problem will be not seeing the field for the next 8 weeks due to fumbling lol -
Last year was the proverbial down year after reaching great heights the year earlier. The opener the offense looked cocky and it bit them hard. The seemed as a team to get it together until the KC game and after they seemed to let up until TB 2nd half. From then on they were fine and the team everyone expected but they cost themselves the 1 seed because of it. With that said they were 0-6 in one score games a year after being 7-1 in one score games. Statistically after a good year you go down, but the Bills really swung further then norm. Some of it was luck as the Allens trip against the Titans doesn't happen and they win that, others were poor performance PIT/JAX. Regardless I do not doubt they've learned their lesson and they will play for blood. You mention 11-6 isn't good enough but if you check the SB winning records over the last decade you'd see the 2011 Giants were 9-7, 2012 Ravens 10-6, 2018 Pats 11-5, & 2020 Bucs 11-5. I wouldn't get too hung up on record, win your division and hope for the 1 seed, regardless though come playoff win and get some luck thats it.

Buffalo / / Greg Rousseau, much has been made about the improvements to the D line and I think it unlocks Groot who had a solid B- type first year with some good plays. Von has taken him under his wing and I think with a year of seasoning and growth you see him become a force which helps keep the Rams passing attack from going wild as Stafford has limited time to throw LAR / / Van Jefferson, he is an incredibly fast elusive receiver who had 800 yds, 50 rec, & 6 TDs last year. Much has been made about Kupp/Robinson for good reason, but Van Jefferson could be the real issue if the young BUF CB's lose coverage on him or because of scheme due to covering Kupp/Robinson I can see him becoming the difference for the Rams. This is also where Tre White not being here to shut down one of the two big guys on his own may hurt.

Predict the Score: Bills vs Rams
corta765 replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall
Bills 27 Rams 23 My heart says this is a 50/50 game where the end result could easily be Rams 27 Bills 23, I have had the Rams repeat as the NFC champs when I have predicted the season so I have no doubt they can beat us. BUT in my head I look at that the Rams have some injuries and guys who need some refinement whereas the Bills outside of Tre being out are far healthier and a bit more talented which allows them to hold on as the Rams can't get a TD late going four and out on the Bills 30. I think the Bills plan on hitting the Rams with McKenize & Shakir in a way they are not ready for which allows Buffalo enough of an advantage to hold out. Both teams respect each other highly and the skill on each side and I see this being a real back and forth game similar to the Titans last year except Buffalo has a happier result. Allen 23-31 301 yds 2 TDs 30 yds 3 atts rush Singletary 65 yds 12 atts Diggs 101 yds 4 rec -

Take a look at most HOF coaches without a elite caliber QB and most records are .500ish. That seems to be the general theme, its also why I think John Harbaugh is the best coach in the NFL for a long while now as he has won a lot with two QBs who are also completely different styles. Bruce Arians I have always thought pretty highly of as virtually anywhere he coached he has had a lot of success with everything from dog crap at QB (John Skelton) to Brady and Palmer. Sean McVay might be the brightest star coach in the NFL as he won with a game manager esq QB in Goff and then was able to not miss a beat and do better with Stafford. I have said for a while Brady covered up sooo much of NE's flaws they had at any point it made them invincible in many ways. BB as a gameday coach is superb and still top 5 ever, but his GM work is very middle of the road and Brady hid much of that.
